Frequently Asked Questions
How long should I wait after bariatric surgery?
Ideal candidates have achieved stable weight (within 10-15 lbs of goal weight) for at least 6-12 months, are in good overall health, don’t smoke, and have realistic expectations. If you have significant loose skin after weight loss that affects your daily activities or self-confidence, you’re likely a good candidate. We evaluate each patient individually during consultation.
Can I combine multiple procedures?
Yes, combining procedures is common and often recommended for comprehensive results. Popular combinations include tummy tuck with arm lift, or a ‘lower body lift’ combining tummy tuck with thigh lift. Combining procedures means one anesthesia session and one recovery period, though surgery time is longer. We’ll determine what’s safe based on your health.
What is recovery like?
Recovery varies by procedure. Generally, expect 1-2 weeks off work for single procedures, 2-4 weeks for combined procedures. You’ll wear compression garments for 4-6 weeks, avoid strenuous activity for 6 weeks, and attend follow-up appointments. Most patients feel significantly better by week 3-4 and see final results at 6-12 months as swelling resolves.
Will I have visible scars?
All surgical procedures result in some scarring, but we use advanced techniques to minimize and strategically place scars. Most scars are positioned in areas covered by underwear or swimwear. Scars fade significantly over 12-18 months and continue improving for years. We provide detailed scar care instructions to optimize healing.
How much does body contouring cost?
Costs vary based on the procedures performed, complexity, and whether procedures are combined. During your consultation, you’ll receive a detailed quote including surgeon fees, anesthesia, facility costs, and post-operative care. We offer financing options to make body contouring accessible. Some insurance may cover portions if excess skin causes documented medical issues.
Is body contouring covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage varies. Some insurers cover portions of body contouring if you can document medical necessity—such as recurring skin infections, rashes, or functional impairment. A tummy tuck may be partially covered as a ‘panniculectomy’ for medical reasons. We can provide documentation to support your insurance claim and help navigate the process.
What results can I expect?
Most patients experience dramatic improvement in body contour, comfort, and confidence. Results are permanent as long as you maintain stable weight. You’ll finally see the body shape that reflects your weight loss achievement. While there will be some scarring, most patients report that the improvement in contour and quality of life far outweighs concerns about scars.
